Doggy Day Care In Pleasant Valley

“My dogs and I love Anastasia! One of my dogs has been going to Anastasia for months. My other dog is a nervous guy and likes his alone time, so we usually leave him at home. But we decided to take him on a trial run to spend a day with Anastasia, and he made a new best friend!”

“Kris is a gracious caregiver who accommodates all of our particular needs. He has the perfect set-up for our challenging pup who doesn't take to unknown people but loves playing with other dogs more than anything. We will be booking again!”

“Emma has been so patient and sweet with our anxious pup. Great, clear communication and we really loved and appreciated the photos and video updates. Can’t wait to board with them!”

“My trepidatious puppy was very well cared for! Margaret sent me photos right away to show that she was settling in and by the end of the day she has made friends with not only the other dogs but the rest of the family too. My pup will be a regular visitor at Margaret’s!”

“Bridgitte is always great with our little rescue dog. We always get pictures of them out taking walks, and she takes our dog out to public places like restaurants which is good for her socialization. Bridgitte is super friendly and personable, and couldn't be easier to work with.”

“Finding the right fit for taking care of my two older chihuahuas was very stressful, until I came across Julie and Barry. Firstly, my huge requirement was that they had no dogs of their own and secondly, that they would only have one client at a time. That is not super easy to find. And not only do they fulfill both of those requirements, but it is two people instead of one, so it's an incredible amount of care and attention that is given to any animal that they might care for. One of my pups has some pretty major anxiety and Julie knew just what to do with her. She turns on her heating pad and cuddles up on the couch with her, and I can tell that they are very loved while there. And though I know my pups don't like being away from me, they very obviously feel safe and comfortable with both Julie and Barry. They also have a wonderful place for the dogs to be when outside. Our pups are going to board with them soon and we feel 100% comfortable with it, and excited that we have found Julie and Barry. Besides taking great care of the pups, they are lovely people and we have enjoyed getting to know them.”

“Lisa & Brian are super nice, friendly people who kept our 3 pups for the day while we did some sightseeing on our way through Portland. They had great communication with us throughout the entire time, sent pics of the pups enjoying their yard and home. I would definitely use them again if I ever need a puppy daycare in Portland!”

Sara T.

“Cassie is the best! She cares deeply and is very attentive to Henry and I. I love all the photos and videos I get as well as the detailed River Card!”

“Took my 3 year old female GSD to Allen’s for daycare and had a good first time experience. Got to meet the other dogs and see her interact with them. Lots of photos and videos throughout the day, which really helps you feel at ease for a first time drop off. Good to know the dogs are running around getting their exercise. We plan to continue using Allen’s services.”

“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”

“We are really pleased with our dog’s first stay with Peter and Missy! We appreciated being able to meet them and their sweet dog, Gunner, prior to booking with them. Peter and Missy seem very caring, conscientious and knowledgeable about dog care. After our dog’s visit, we were pleasantly surprised to receive information about our dog’s activities (e.g. map showing where he went on a walk, at what time and distance) and loved the photos! We appreciated them taking such great care of our dog!”

“She was able to take care of my pups short notice. She provided lots of pics. I am traveling and my pups were very nervous about everything. They handled it very well and I'm sure Maggie made it easy!”

“Ceydi likes visiting Amie; this was her second visit and she seemed to recognize the house by scent from the car. She was happy to be handed over and that put my mind at ease, since she's a delicate princess and I worry about her.”

“Veronica took excellent care of our 13.5 year old Penny Lane. She took her on a walk with her pups and sent multiple photos throughout the day which we so appreciated. Veronica is a conscientious person who understands dog behavior. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Veronica to look after Penny Lane again in the future. Thank you, Veronica!”
